The Bar/Lounge at Hotel Ella

"There's a small lap pool and garden courtyard, plus fine-dining eatery, Goodall’s Kitchen & Bar, on the main floor"

"The 47 guest rooms are spacious and stylishly decorated, with modern comforts like large flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, well-stocked minibars, and lovely marble bathrooms"

" Goodall’s Kitchen & Bar is both casual and chic, with a menu of seasonally driven global cuisine and a setting enhanced by works of art from the hotel's vast collection; paintings and sculptures are also on display throughout the rest of the property"

"The interior is bathed in shades of neutral grey, brown and slate blue, with pops of color from a blue velvet chaise lounge and mustard throw pillow"

"The downstairs spaces, including a tony upscale restaurant and full bar, have crystal chandeliers and high-coffered ceilings, with a look that speaks sleek and sophisticated, while whispering old money"

"The property's popular parlor bar features half-off cocktails, beers, and wines by the glass during weekday happy hours"

"A rectangular pool framed by white loungers is one of the city’s best escapes on hot summer days"

"With its wainscoting and dim, downtown air, the small bar section is the perfect setting for a backroom deal or two"
